Texas Football: Complete NFL Combine Results for Former Longhorns

The 2013 NFL draft is fast-approaching, and each prospect will have multiple opportunities to maximize his stock before the April 25-27 event.The NFL Scouting Combine provides just that kind of needed platform.

The Texas Longhorns had three representatives at the combine in receiver Marquise Goodwin, defensive end Alex Okafor and safety Kenny Vaccaro, all of who could sniff early-round potential.

Goodwin shined early with a stellar 40-yard dash result, and Okafor was forced to miss a number of drills due to injury, but will perform during Texas' pro day on March 26.

Other notable 'Horns not invited to the combine include running back D.J. Monroe, tight end D.J. Grant and defensive tackle Brandon Moore.

40-Yard Dash: 4.27 seconds

Bench Press: 13 reps

Broad Jump: 132 inches (11 feet)

Marquise Goodwin, the track star turned burner, posted the current best 40-yard dash time at the 2013 NFL combine with a blazing 4.27 seconds, three one-hundredths of a second behind Chris Johnson's 4.24 seconds mark in 2008.

The long jumper also recorded an 11-foot broad jump, four inches shy of Justin Hunter's combine-best mark. Tennessee Tech's Da'Rick Rodgers also posted an 11-foot jump.

Goodwin placed among the median performers in the bench press, but his brute strength is not what NFL teams will be looking for in the upcoming draft.

His routes aren't the most technical and flexible as even the average receiver, but his top-end speed and ability to get to the corner will make him a sensible option in the mid-to-late rounds in the draft.
